Will You Prefer Death To Abandoning Your Favourite Foods, Hobbies Or Stuff?

Imagine been sick for some months and finally having the chance of recovery from that deadly ailment. The final day to be discharged from the hospital then becomes your happiest day since you may be missing home so greatly.

But, before you leave, the doctor informs you of the need to duly abstain from certain foods that may have triggered your sickness. Just imagine the medical doctor instructing you to desist from eating fufu as the first-ever command, in order to stay healthy and fit.

As an Akan and full supporter for the consumption of pounded cassava and plantain or just pounded yam, with your fresh meat, fish and other appetizing stuff, you may be tempted to choose death over your recovery.

With such experiences, as soon as you leave the doctor’s consultation room, you’ll just call home and request for your designed coffin because fufu is just your favourite and you can never do without it! In short, you will just eat your fufu and sweep the doctor’s opinion under the carpets.

What will be your choice as a fufu lover – to stop eating fufu and live or continue and die?
